Alternate drives in Jar file Class-Path attribute
Hello, all. I am working on a project that I would like to package into a single jar file for simple execution. At my place of work classes from EJB are stored on a different drive from where I am doing the development. I am having trouble accessing those classes from the Jars I am creating. When I try the following manifest:
Main-Class: MyPackage.MyClass
Class-Path: U:\someFolder
the application will not start, saying that MyPackage.MyClass cannot be found. This is despite MyPackage.MyClass being properly packaged into the Jar file, as verified by a jar t operation. When I leave off the drive letter in the Class-Path attribute:
Main-Class: MyPackage.MyClass
Class-Path: someFolder
the application starts and executes properly right up until a class from someFolder is needed, at which point exceptions begin to be thrown.
Any ideas will be much appreciated!
